Pers if I was to start fert's, I'd use the recommended dose of the liquid fert's BUT I'd split it in 2x week. I donno how much you gotta use of this stuff, but let's say its reccomanding 30ml once a week, then i'd do 15 ml 2x week. Just makes more sense to me personally to have a more constand feeding going on rather then just ONCE.

I think I read somewhere that you don't use ferts at all is that right Angel? What kind of substrate do you have?

I would gladly do away with the ferts but since my plants have always had it I'm afraid they may not do well without it... there was this one time I didn't use it for 2 weeks and one of my hygrophilias looked all sad and whimpy...

Yup true that is
Substrate: 2 tanks with gravel and one with Sand - That's it. (All former tanks were fine gravel but the cray tank)
And its not quite "correct" to say I have no fert's suggest my plants in any tanks never gotten no nutritious, then they'd not have developed into Jungles. They just had good water, good lights and other good things the fish left behind so from that aspect I "use" natural fert's if you will.
